Thrifting Thursdays - Week 4
10.2.11
This has been a crazy week for me. Both kidlets and I have caught a cold. Plus it's FRIGID outside, which doesn't entice me too much to venture out into the cold looking for old stuff with 2 sick kids in tow.
But alas, I did.
Today was our first day out since Monday {when we went to the indoor gym! and to Value Village's 50% off sale for Family Home Evening}. Thursday mornings are usually reserved for thrifting, but I didn't want to risk it with both kids. I shopped full retail this morning - I'm looking for good sheets. All I found in the colour I wanted was 1000 thread count sheets that cost nearly $100. No thanks, I'll pass.
I wanted to thrift this afternoon, but my priority was to peruse fabric stores for the perfect upholstery material for my upcycled dining room projects. I'll write about that in a separate post.
I did, however, manage to hit a couple thrift stores today, but everything was a miss. Luckily I scooped up these sunny little gems earlier this week. Both items are yellow {as is a juicer I also purchased but didn't photograph}. Yellow is becoming the accent colour in our home - you'll see this tomorrow when I show you some fabric I'm looking at!
Sweet sunshine-y shoes for Little A. They are unworn and I paid a whopping 49 cents! |
A mustard yellow vintage Pyrex casserole dish with darling fleurs - with a lid! LOVE! Sadly, this may be my last Pyrex piece for awhile...unless I see a PINK piece or a fridgie! I am running out of storage space for all my vintage Pyrex. But in my defence, I do use them daily! |
